Cool Helping people be smarter consumers

Hey Dani,

P. T. Barnum supposedly once said that "There's a sucker born every minute." No system, however perfect, will protect dimwits from hurting themselves, but at least we can try to reduce the incidence of harm.

A few years ago, in a post here, I described a very simple scheme by which the adult industry might greatly reduce the amount of fraud associated with it - and maybe spare someone like you some of the abuse you suffer from folks burned by scammers who impersonate you online.

I know you follow APAC on Twitter here; are you a member? Have they ever tried to undertake a scheme like the one I detailed? If you are an APAC member, might you forward such a suggestion as part of your relationship with them?

Pending the type of identity-authenticated central registry I advocate, I suggest that you regularly police the better-known porn megasites which publish summary material about you. In particular, I draw your attention to the Internet Adult Fim Database, by far the most comprehensive index of the adult industry online, which publishes a profile for you here. It's the first place someone like me (and maybe many other people) would go to determine which are the most likely reliable sources information about you.
